Using in situ hybridization the regulation of mRNA encoding the galanin receptor R1 was investigated in the mutant Brattelboro (diabetes insipidus) rat. We here report an increase of the galanin receptor R1 mRNA levels in the hypothalamic supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the mutant strains. The increase seemed to be confined to magnocellular neurons, since no changes were detected in galanin receptor R1 mRNA levels in the extra-hypothalamic nucleus of the olfactory tract. The results confirm that osmotic stimulation induces up-regulation of galanin receptor R1 mRNA levels. This may increase the sensitivity to galanin peptide, the endogenous ligand for this receptor.
